Seven projects have been selected through a competitive process voted on by a distinguished jury. Each winning project will receive a $1,000 honorarium and will present their work at the NOMA National Virtual Conference on October 17, 2020.

The Weatherization Kit Project aims to address housing inequalities by providing a resource of information and materials to those living in older homes who don’t have the means to move, or do permanent renovations to save money and energy in the winter months.
